What are the authentication options available with Rails 3 ?

Question

My current project is in rails 2.3.5 which uses restful authentication. I am moving this app to rails 3.. I want to know about the compatibility of authentication plugins with rails 3.

Can i use authlogic with rails 3 ? Is it reliable ?

what other options do I have for a very simple user authentication to work with rails 3 ?

thanks

Answer 1

I would recommend devise (http://github.com/plataformatec/devise). I found it very easy to get up and running on rails3.

• It has tons of features.
• It is actively being developed.
• It has specific instructions for use with Rails3.
• I could go on, but I think you get the idea :)
